DRIFT

Drift is layered, textural, and quietly powerful. It plays with contrast and movement: deep tones, bright accents, soft edges. A calm, expressive space to reflect and reset.

Tips & Techniques 

Canvas practice makes perfect

Within each kit comes a series of practice pieces for you to see how the paints and tools feel on the surface of the canvas. This also allows you to try different colour combinations and techniques before committing  to your canvas

Use the stencil brush for softness

The round stencil brush in this kit helps you blur edges, build cloudy textures, or break up harsh lines. Use it dry to feather out dark paint into lighter areas, or tap gently for a hazy, washed effect — perfect for mimicking movement or fog.

Palette knife = bold and broken

You’ve got two knives with different shapes: one with a square edge, the other with a classic pointed tip. The square one is great for dragging clean, flat strokes and laying down solid blocks of colour. The pointed one gives you more control for scraping, angling, or cutting into edges.
Try layering colours with both to build texture and contrast. Let them overlap, interrupt, and mix directly on the canvas.

Work in layers

Let this style evolve slowly. Start with a dark base and layer lighter tones on top, or build from the centre out. Let each part dry before adding more if you want clear edges and depth. Like the sea, this style works beautifully when you give it space to shift and settle.

Or let it flow

You can also take the opposite route. Put your colours down wet, side by side, and move them with the knife before they dry. Let them blend, bleed, and react naturally.
This approach is about trusting the process. You don’t need a plan, just follow what the paint is doing and let the tools lead the way.

Balance weight and space

This aesthetic plays with tension. Big areas of dark colour next to soft gaps of empty canvas. Let contrast work for you. If one corner feels heavy, leave the other calm. It’s not about symmetry, it’s about balance.

Accent with care

You’ve got two bold accent colours in this palette, vibrant orange and green. Use them sparingly to create contrast and focus. A single small mark can shift the whole energy of your piece.

Inspiration behind Drift

This style is shaped by the Scottish coast. That feeling you get when you’re staring out at the sea. Peaceful, reflective, clear.
Sometimes you’re alone, sometimes you’re surrounded by people you love. But the calm is the same. It’s a moment to breathe, to feel, and just be.


Drift is the sea’s version of stillness. The creative kind.
